G (320003@1)I dreamed I saw St. Augustine,
C (x32010@1)              GAlive (320003@1)as you or me,
GTearing (320003@1)through these quarters
        A (x02220@1)      CIn (x32010@1)the utmost misery,
GWith (320003@1)a blanket underneath his arm
C (x32010@1)                    GAnd (320003@1)a coat of solid gold,
G (320003@1)               ASearching (x02220@1)for the very souls
C (x32010@1)                       GWhom (320003@1)already have been sold.

G"Arise, (320003@1)arise," he cried so loud, 
C (x32010@1)                        G (320003@1)
In a voice without restraint,
 G"Come (320003@1)out, ye gifted kings and queens
          A (x02220@1)   CAnd (x32010@1)hear my sad complaint.
GNo (320003@1)martyr is among ye now
C (x32010@1)                      GWhom (320003@1)you can call your own,
G (320003@1)               ASo (x02220@1)go on your way accordingly
C (x32010@1)                     GBut (320003@1)know you're not alone."

GI (320003@1)dreamed I saw St. Augustine,
C (x32010@1)                   GAlive (320003@1)with fiery breath,
GAnd (320003@1)I dreamed I was amongst the ones
      A (x02220@1)         CThat (x32010@1)put him out to death.
GOh, (320003@1)I awoke in anger,
C (x32010@1)                  GSo (320003@1)alone and terrified,
G (320003@1)               AI (x02220@1)put my fingers against the glass
C (x32010@1)                       GAnd (320003@1)bowed my head and cried.
